That day, we went on a family shopping trip to IKEA because Waipo wanted to buy a new cupboard for her house...Since all the old folks were at home, we decided to bring everyone along. So, me, Daddy, Waipo, Laoma, Zhen Popo and Ace all went to IKEA together.
On the way there, Ace was happily singing away and talking to himself. Laoma was playing with him and suddenly, Ace turned towards Laoma and said, "Laoma!"
Waipo exclaimed, "Wah, he can call laoma already!"
We told Ace, "Clever boy!"
And so Ace repeated, "Laoma, laoma, laoma, laoma... mama, mama, mama..." (We sometimes refer to her as mahmah..)
Wah.. and then laoma's mouth open with a big smile and we cannot see her eyes.I guess zhenpopo is a little disappointed but tough luck for her.. it is really quite a mouthful to call zhenpopo...
But Ace is in extremely good mood after trying out all of IKEA's beds as well.. so on the way home.. he called ME to ask for my attention.. hee hee ;)
Anyway, the very next day when Laoma came, we asked Ace to call her. But he refused and just stared at her.
The moment she sat down with a sweet potato in her hand, Ace ran out from Ah Yee's room and stood in front of her and said, "Ah Mahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......"
How very 'practical' this little boy is.. hahaha.....
